Did you know?

Entrelac is a knitting technique that is used to create a textured diamond pattern.  The pattern is made up of interconnected squares with two different orientations, resulting in the illusion of basket-woven strips of knitted fabric.   A unique feature of entrelac is the fact that a single “row” of knitting actually contains a number of shorter rows within a square.  To create the “basket-weave” effect, the knitter picks up stitches along the side edge of an existing square, then knits along them.    (Adapted from “Entrelac” at www.en.m.wikipedia.org.)
